Description
This command is used to delete unnecessary or obsolete files from the file
systems of the management module and the media converter modules.
For background information on configuration files, refer to Chapter 8,
“Configuration File Commands” on page 145.
Here are the guidelines to using this command:
ˆ Allied Telesis does not recommend deleting the management module’s
active master configuration file. If you do delete the file, you should
afterwards specify a new active master configuration file with the
CONFIG SET command. For further information, refer to “CONFIG
SET” on page 164.
ˆ Deleting a media converter’s configuration file (for example,
BM_00_01.cfg) from the file system of the management module does
not affect the operation of the media converter module or the
management module.
ˆ Deleting a configuration file (for example, BM.cfg) from a media
converter’s file system is not recommended. Deleting the file does not
affect the operation of the module, except if you remove the module
and install it into a different slot. In the latter scenario, the module uses
its default values or the values provided by the management module.
ˆ The filename is case sensitive. To verify the spelling and case of a
filename, use the FILE SHOW command. For instructions, refer to
“FILE SHOW” on page 191.
ˆ You do not have to perform the CONFIG SAVE command after
deleting a file.
Examples

management module in a chassis with an ID number of 0:

This command deletes the master configuration file “unit14ab.cfg” from a
management module in a chassis with an ID number of 0:
file delete filesystem=system://0/m/unit14ab.cfg
This command deletes all the configuration files starting with “BM” from
management module in a chassis with an ID number of 0:
